In GuixSD, the way to handle dual (or more) boot is to define a list of
menu-entries for the bootloader configuration in your OS config. It's
documented here:
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Bootloader-Configuration.html.
For an actual example, this post might give you some idea:

Good luck!
